Chapter 300: Palace Fight: Concubine Rong's Rainbow Fart
Everyone was silent. Feng Chengjin was obviously crazy to say such a thing.
333 was also surprised, "Host! Is Feng Chengjin crazy?"
Shen Hanqing responded: "It's not a big deal, my son has just reached his rebellious stage."
She glanced at Feng Chengjin and said, "How could I not know that His Royal Highness Prince An could influence His Majesty's decision?"
"Empress? I am just a humble Zhaoyi, I have no ambition for her. Recently, I have been living in the cold palace and am quite content."
As she spoke, Shen Hanqing curled her lips and smiled, "Besides, which of Concubine Qu and Concubine Rong is not more suitable to be the queen than this palace, Your Highness Prince An should be careful with his words."
Many people were even more frightened after hearing this. Which woman in the harem didn't want to become the queen? Prince An and Shen Hanqing not only brought this matter to the surface.
Concubine Qu and Concubine Rong were also placed on a high platform.
Feng Chengjin loosened his hand at his side, yawned, and squinted his eyes lazily. "Everyone at this palace banquet is so boring. There's not even a single thing to do for fun."
The implication of this statement is that he just wants to stir up trouble.
Reasonably, Prime Minister Cao did not want to continue this topic, so he said, "Your Highness Prince An is talking nonsense again."
Feng Chengjin yawned continuously, looking like a drug addict.
Not far away, Shen Hanyuan also tried his best to hold Shen Hanxi down, preventing him from rushing up and beating Feng Chengjin.
After all, Shen Hanxi is really a super sister complex.
However, Feng Chengyi had also been given a lot of face by Shen Hanqing recently, so since Feng Chengjin had handed over the topic, he took it over.
Feng Chengyi said with a cold face: "Chen Hanqing, you are just a little Zhaoyi, how can you wear bright red? It really breaks the rules."
Shen Hanqing curled her lips and smiled, looking directly at Feng Chengyi, "Why not? Then Your Majesty, please tell me, who stipulated that as a Zhaoyi, I can't wear it?"
That's really not the case. It's just a convention. If a concubine of low rank wears such bright colors, wouldn't it be eye-catching?
Therefore, in order to avoid offending the higher-ranking concubines and bringing disaster upon themselves by wearing clothes with too eye-catching colors, concubines of lower ranks gradually formed this rule.
This is the same as when the queen of a certain dynasty loved pink, and other concubines avoided her and dared not wear pink.
Feng Chengyi was choked, but he felt that if he didn't let Shen Hanqing suffer a little today, she might not take him, the emperor, seriously. "Chen Zhaoyi still wants to quibble, which really disappoints me. Come, confine Shen Zhaoyi!"
Shen Hanqing put away the smile on his face, and the whole person looked a little imposing and overwhelming.
The guards who appeared at the entrance of the hall did not dare to step forward and were a little hesitant.
Shen Hanqing met Feng Chengyi's eyes and said word by word: "Your Majesty, if I wear the phoenix robe today and you punish me, then I will admit it."
"But to punish me just because I wore red is ridiculous."
"According to your majesty, just because the dragon robe is yellow, does that mean anyone wearing yellow should die?"
Feng Chengyi was so shocked by Shen Hanqing that he couldn’t say a word.
How could Rong Fei, who was beside him, let go of this opportunity? She wanted to completely kill Shen Hanqing, so she was about to speak.
Shen Hanqing looked at Concubine Rong, "My Lady Concubine Rong, are you enjoying the ointment?"
Rong Fei's pupils shrank slightly, and she looked at Shen Hanqing in disbelief.
How did she know about the ointment? Impossible!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Prime Minister Cao spoke again, "Your Majesty, although Shen Zhaoyi is dressed a little too conspicuously, she has done nothing wrong."
"Besides, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, it should be a time for family happiness, right?"
At this time, Shen Hanyuan also spoke, "Your Majesty, you promised to give Hanqing the phoenix robe, and I thought you were joking. But now you can't even wear the clothes Hanqing likes?"
"Speaking of which, before Your Majesty ascended the throne, because Hanqing liked the color red, you gave her quite a few gifts, didn't you?"
This sounds nonchalant, but is actually full of threats.
There is even a sense of irony in it, that he tried to please the emperor in every way before ascending the throne, but found fault with him all the time after ascending the throne.
What? You want to destroy the bridge after crossing it?
Feng Chengyi was extremely angry, and his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
He was the king of a country, yet he was humiliated like this!
His Shen family really has bad intentions!
Finally, Feng Chengyi forced a smile and said, "Forget it. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, so I won't bother with it." As long as Shen Hanyuan holds the military power, he can't do anything to the Shen family.
"But Zhaoyi Shen should be more careful. After all, there are different levels of rank among the concubines in the harem. You must not cross the line."
The matter seemed to have been resolved, but in fact everyone had different thoughts.
Prime Minister Cao saw clearly that Shen Hanqing, and even the Shen family, were directly making their attitude clear to Feng Chengyi.
As for Prince An Feng Chengjin, he was still a little confused about the situation.
It is understandable that Feng Chengjin is extremely hostile to Shen Hanqing.
If he wanted to kill Chen Hanqing, that would be normal.
But the fact that he suddenly stopped finding fault just now was really puzzling.
And there is Concubine Rong.
Shen Hanqing mentioned some ointment, and Rong Fei seemed very afraid. Could it be... related to Feng Chengyi's fascination with Rong Fei these days?
In that case...
Prime Minister Cao's hand trembled, and some of the wine in the cup spilled out.
This woman, Shen Hanqing, is really terrifying.
He was not even sure if he had a chance of winning if he stood against Shen Hanqing.
Feng Chengjin held the wine glass, his brows slightly lowered, thinking about Shen Hanqing's affairs.
I don't know why he said those words just now.
He probably wanted to see if Shen Hanqing would be useless to Feng Chengyi if she became his queen.
After all, Shen Hanqing's goal is to get the position of queen.
Feng Chengjin leaned back in his chair and suddenly smiled.
I'm really crazy. What's the point of thinking about all these nonsense?
The palace banquet finally began. Concubine Rong, who had originally decided to use ointment to attract butterflies to please Feng Chengyi, was a little hesitant.
I kept looking in Shen Hanqing's direction.
As for Shen Hanqing, she remained motionless and unmoved, making it impossible for Rong Fei to see what she was thinking.
After a long time, Rong Fei finally made a decision. Even if Shen Hanqing knew, she couldn't do anything to her.
After all, Feng Chengyi dotes on her the most now, and the one he hates the most is Shen Hanqing.
So Rong Fei stood up and said she wanted to perform.
Feng Chengyi naturally agreed.
Rong Fei immediately asked someone to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and prepared to paint a picture.
No matter what, he would paint the beautiful mountains and rivers of Daxia, because this was Feng Chengyi's world.
Shen Hanqing covered the corners of her mouth by drinking because she was afraid that she would laugh.
However, Concubine Rong still has some brains and was able to come up with this idea.
Rong Fei's painting skills were quite impressive. In just a few moments, mountains, rivers and streams came to life on the paper.
Many butterflies also flew in from outside the hall and danced above the painting.
After finishing the painting, Concubine Rong knelt down and showered Feng Chengyi with compliments.
